Hi guys,

I am planning to relocate my sump, remotely (about 35 feet away). My biggest concern is temperature control!

What I would like to do is have a temperature probe in the display tank, and the heater(s) in the remote sump, so that the tank temperature is regualted based on the actual display, rather than the sump.

The sump is to be located in an unheated shed, out back (bare in mind it rarely drops below freezing here in Ireland) - so in winter I am going to need quite a large amount of heating capacity (everything will be well insualted though).

Could someone point me in the right direction of a suitable "product" to fulfill this.

Thanks

Matt

These are FANTASTIC!! If you can afford the 3 go for it. Theres nothing like controlling your tank from the couch with your laptop.

Yeah, sounds like you need a controller. I like Neptune products. :)
